AR 63 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Urges President and Congress to enact legislation granting amnesty and providing path to citizenship for undocumented immigrants.

This New Jersey Assembly Resolution (AR 63) is a non-binding request urging the U.S. President and Congress to pass federal legislation granting amnesty and creating an 8-year path to citizenship for undocumented immigrants. It directly addresses the approximately 11 million undocumented immigrants living in the U.S., citing their economic contributions and current lack of legal status. The resolution emphasizes that such legislation would improve economic outcomes, reduce exploitation, and integrate immigrants into society - referencing the 1986 Immigration Reform Act as a historical precedent. It does not create new law but formally calls on federal lawmakers to act.
